The user manual attempts complete coverage of the user-interface and concepts behind Yoshimi. This cookbook attempts to provide recipes to solve some common problems in getting Yoshimi to perform at its best for the user. 1.1 Project Structure The "Yoshimi Cookbook" project consists of two parts: The source material for this document. A self contained "yoshimi" configuration and data section to support the examples in this cookbook. The documentation source-files are provided in the tex directory. They are use to create the cookbook via Makefiles and the external "latexmk" project. The result of a "make" is a new PDF of the cookbook in the pdf directory. The latest PDF is always provided there so that one does not have to install the external projects needed to create it. The configuration, banks, presets, and instrument files can be used to supplement or replaces the user's own configuration and data files. 1.2 XML File Compression One thing we recommend for following this cookbook is to set the Yoshimi compression level to 0. This makes it a lot easier to text-edit the file to read its contents and understand them. To make this setting: 1. Navigate to Menu / Yoshimi / Settings.../ Main settings. 2. Click on the left arrow of XML compression level until the value of 0 appears. 3. Click on the Save and Close button. 4. Restart Yoshimi, then navigate again to this dialog to verify that the setting has been saved. Setting this option makes the XML files a bit larger, perhaps larger by a factor of more than 10, making a 10K file into a 180K file. But these days, that should not be a problem. Maybe if one is running Yoshimi on an old Raspberry Pi device. On the other hand, for normal usage, it is best to leave the compression setting at 3, since decompression is faster than reading larger amounts of data from a file. 1.3 What Game Shall We Play Today? There are a number of recipes that are hinted at in the user manual, but that solve problems that the author has encountered while using Yoshimi. 3 Yoshimi Software Synthesizer Banks and MIDI. Yoshimi has had recent modifications to support bank-switching and using program-change messages to make Yoshimi a more flexible MIDI playback tool. General MIDI. It should be possible to set up one or more banks that are General MIDI compliant. Usage of Modulators. Yoshimi provides a number of modulation setups, but it isn't clear how to use them, especially the ring modulator. Creation of Special Instruments. There are some instruments that don't seem to have decent ZynAddSubFX/Yoshimi instrument files. Some examples, based on our desires: sitar, koto, bag- pipes, steel drums, telephone tones, middle-eastern pipes, Japanese instruments, that steel-whip percussion sound heard in many songs.... More!. This document explains how to do some of the above tasks. 2 Concepts This section, like its counterpart in our Yoshimi User Manual, presents some useful concepts, while keeping them out of the way. 2.1 Concepts / Terms This section doesn't provide comprehensive coverage of terms. It covers mainly terms that puzzled the author at first or that are necessary to understand the recipes. 2.1.1 Concepts / Terms / cent The cent is a logarithmic unit of measure used for musical intervals. Twelve-tone equal temperament divides the octave into 12 semitones of 100 cents each. Typically, cents are used to measure extremely small finite intervals, or to compare the sizes of comparable intervals in different tuning systems. The interval of one cent is much too small to be heard between successive notes. Since the detuning provided in Yoshimi is based primarily on cents (and octaves), it pays to understand cents. If a given frequency f' is offset from another frequency f, the relationships between them in semitones (s) are: f 0 = f ∗ 2s=12 s = 12log(f 0=f)=log2 Note that the log operator is the base-10 log. In cents, these relationships become: f 0 = f ∗ 2s=1200 c = 1200log(f 0=f)=log2 where c is cents. These relationships hold whether f' is less than or greater than f. They provide an easy way to determine how much to detune a frequency in Yoshimi. 4 Yoshimi Software Synthesizer 2.1.2 Concepts / Terms / ring modulation Ring modulation is the multiplication (heterodyning) of two signals, and is named for the ring-like circuit that can produce it. When two tones, f1 and f2, with f1 <f2, are multiplied, the spectrum changes from ff1, f2g to ff2-f1, f2+f1g. Depending on the ratio of f1 and f2, the sounds can be bell-like or very discordant. Yoshimi provides ring modulation, as well as other forms of modulation. 3 Installing Cookbook Resources This section explains how to set up the Yoshimi Cookbook files into one's "home" directory so that they are easily accessible and easily modifiable. First, let's get the files copied to the home directory. Currently, the Yoshimi Cookbook resources are not installable. One simply unpacks this project, or git-clones it to the desired directory. Let's call it yoshimi-cookbook. This name represents where one has cloned the project. cd .../yoshimi-cookbook cd .. cp -r yoshimi-cookbook ~/.config

  • A Framework for Embedded Digital Musical Instruments
    A Framework for Embedded Digital Musical Instruments Ivan Franco Music Technology Area Schulich School of Music McGill University Montreal, Canada A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. © 2019 Ivan Franco 2019/04/11 i Abstract Gestural controllers allow musicians to use computers as digital musical instruments (DMI). The body gestures of the performer are captured by sensors on the controller and sent as digital control data to a audio synthesis software. Until now DMIs have been largely dependent on the computing power of desktop and laptop computers but the most recent generations of single-board computers have enough processing power to satisfy the requirements of many DMIs. The advantage of those single-board computers over traditional computers is that they are much smaller in size. They can be easily embedded inside the body of the controller and used to create fully integrated and self-contained DMIs. This dissertation examines various applications of embedded computing technologies in DMIs. First we describe the history of DMIs and then expose some of the limitations associated with the use of general-purpose computers. Next we present a review on different technologies applicable to embedded DMIs and a state of the art of instruments and frameworks. Finally, we propose new technical and conceptual avenues, materialized through the Prynth framework, developed by the author and a team of collaborators during the course of this research. The Prynth framework allows instrument makers to have a solid starting point for the de- velopment of their own embedded DMIs.

  • Datapond – Data Driven Music Builder
    DataPond – Data Driven Music Builder DataPond Data Driven Music Builder Over the past couple of months I have been attempting to teach myself to read music. This is something that I have been meaning to do for a long time. In high school the music teachers seemed to have no interest in students other than those with existing natural talent. The rest of us, they just taught appreciation of Bob Dylan. I can't stand Bob Dylan. So I never learned to read music or play an instrument. Having discovered the enjoyment of making stringed instruments such as the papermaché sitar, the Bad-Arse Mountain Dulcimer, a Windharp (inspired by this one), and a couple of other odd instruments. More recently I made a Lap Steel Slide guitar based on the electronics described in David Eric Nelson's great book “Junkyard Jam Band” and on Shane Speal's guide on building Lapsteels. I built mine out of waste wood palette wood and it connects to an old computer speaker system I pulled out of my junk box and turned to the purpose. It ended up sounding pretty good – to my ear at least. Anyway, I have instruments-a-plenty, but didn't know how to play'em so I decided to teach myself music. The biggest early challenge was reading music. I'm sure it would have been easier if a mathematician had been involved in designing the notation system. To teach myself I decided that reading sheet music and transcribing it into the computer would be a good way of doing it.
